I'm no expert, but gerrymandering and urban vs rural don't really matter in the Presidential election on the state level.
For the most part the states are winner take all (a few minor exceptions, Mass, or some stupid state like that breaks it up), but for the most part it's majority rules/gets all of the EC votes.
The urban/rural thing comes up a bit in the # of EC votes a state gets, but on a state level, all you really need to win is 1 more vote.
