Answer 1

You set spinner height as "wrap_content" so it will automatically adjust its height.You should set Spinner row's Textview max line as 1.Then it will not show double line. Textview xml file

android:maxLines="1"

Answer 2

Adding to @Kush answer, Please make sure that your parent also having wrap_content so that your spinner text can show in one line. Otherwise, It will look same even if you give wrap_content to your spinner.

Please use below code:

  <android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatSpinner
                            android:id="@+id/spStates"
                            style="@style/TextLabelBookBlack"
                            android:layout_width="match_parent"
                            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                            android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
                            android:layout_marginBottom="@dimen/_4sdp"
                            android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/_4sdp"
                            android:layout_weight="1"
                            android:maxLines="1"
                            android:entries="@array/us_states"
                            />
