Urban voters represented 20% of voters. Sub-Urban 45%. Rural 35%

63% of Urban voters went Harris, 35% Trump. 63% of Rural voters went Trump, 35% Harris. Suburban went 52% Harris and 47% Trump

The 15% more Rural than Urban voters, combined with gerrymandering and state vote power differences offset the 5% Democrat lean of Sub-Urban voters.

If we look at who ACTUALLY voted from the voting age population, then the boonies certainly did win it for Trump despite the other 65% being pro Harris to varying degrees. If we consider people who didn't vote at all that could have, and assume the majority of those would have voted for Harris, then we can likely blame those that didn't vote for leaving the power in the hands of those in the boonies.
