Screenshot showing results

When you search for 'barack obama' (sic) on mobile, the first result is 'Barack
obama', and the second result is 'Barack Obama'. The former is a redirect to
the latter and should be omitted from the results for obvious reasons.

It looks like this is the default behavior for Desktop too. This bug should be
fixed at the API level (CirrusSearch).
