Does gerrymandering not affect elections for US Senators?

Question

Gerrymandering is a problem; a Representative could have their voter base diluted across neighboring districts at the whim of the controlling party. But Senate elections are statewide, and states don't tend to change shape a lot. Given that Senators are elected by popular vote, **does this mean that gerrymandering has no direct effect on the election of US Senators?**

Answer 1

 Gerrymandering applies only to Congressional representatives. Senators are elected by statewide popular vote. So, there is no direct effect on the election of US Senators.
