Proof it isn't:

Assume the universe is in a state where every electron is paired with a
proton, distant or not, and every proton is paired with an electron. Along
comes an energetic gamma photon, and it produces an electron-positron
pair.  Since a proton is not produced, we now have an electron which is
not paired with a proton, since there is no proton to pair it with, since
every other proton is already paired with an electron.

(And what about the positron? Is every positron paired with an antiproton
somewhere?)
