I think this is just because `selectedSearchEngine` currently only exists in 34 (it's not yet on 35 or Nightly either).

Comment 2

[Alex Gibson [:agibson]]

Additional note: this is used on /firstrun just to provide GA analytics for 34. It should not impact anything functionally.

Comment 3

[Alex Gibson [:agibson]]

I can at least include a version check when this code is called, which would prevent the browser console error on versions < 34.
