.on('click' function not always firing - often takes 2 clicks

.on('click' function not always firing - often takes 2 clicks

I have a form validation script, which should fire upon clicking the
submit button. Everything works well, except sometimes it requires the
submit button to be clicked twice before going. The fact is only happens
about 20% of the time makes it really hard to diagnose. The #send button
is not dynamic, so I'm not sure what the issue could be. Any help would be
appreciated! This will be used on a mobile form, so any ideas for any
other improvements as well would be great. Thanks!
