Is this the first GOP to Dem flip this year?

From NYCboss's journal here on DU.

"Democrats win special election in Norman, Oklahoma (Formerly held by GOP)
(The Oklahoman) Oklahoma Democrats added another seat to their House membership Tuesday as Jacob Rosecrants beat Darin Chambers to fill an unexpired term.

The Norman House seat was previously held by Scott Martin, who left the Legislature to run the Norman Chamber of Commerce. It is the third House or Senate seat Democrats have taken from the GOP in special elections this year alone. The minority party will have 28 members in the Oklahoma House when Rosecrants is sworn in, which could be before a special session begins Sept. 25."
