How to fix, recommendation:

• Since this is opening a dropdown rather than navigating this should be a button rather than a link. 
• This would be best fixed by migrating to use the ClayPaginationBar.
• If this isn't feasibly currently this could be fixed by simply switching to a button and made to follow the select-only-combobox pattern.
