Sort tracking lists in an intuitive way

Open GPHemsley opened this issue 11 years ago • 0 comments

It's not clear to me that there is any rhyme or reason to the sorting order of lists at this point. (I'm not even sure that it's listed by the date the item was added to the list.) There should be some order to the list.

The best way to handle this, I think is to separate the different types of items that can be tracked into distinct sections within the list, then sort by current vs. historical (Congress, years in office, etc.), then sort alphabetically.

Alternatively, if the separation of types is too ambitious, the other sort orders could still apply.
