That’s because a lot of the challenges are based on recent maps. One of the things Renquist did, with the help of Texas, was disconnect redistricing with the census.

The Ohio one seems to be a situation where it was drawn in 2010 (from the article):

Republican leaders, in creating the current map after the 2010 census, designed districts capable of withstanding swings in voter sentiment to reliably elect 12 Republicans and four Democrats statewide. The results have been exactly as planned in the four elections with the map, with Republicans winning 75 percent of the races with just over half of the overall vote.
