Finally found some confirmation here at this live blog from the Mississippi Convention.
Looks like Attorney General Jim Hood was elected as the "unpledged delegate to the convention", which translates into add-on.
No word yet officially if Hood has allegiances to either candidate.

An Add-On for Clinton, a Congressman and State Chair for Obama
In the wake of a split decision in Oregon and Kentucky, the stream of superdelegates has slowed down today considerably from last week when Senator Obama was rolling out 4-5 superdelegates a day.
Senator Clinton won the second add-on delegate for Ohio, after the first one opted to endorse Obama. As Ben Smith at Politico.com reported, Ohio add-on Craig Bashein has endorsed Senator Clinton.
There was discussion that the Ohio state party would select an Obama and a Clinton supporter for its add-on delegates. The timing of this add-on delegate's decision was most likely orchestrated by the Clinton campaign to build on the Kentucky win yesterday.
Senator Obama picked up two superdelegates today--Connecticut Congressman Joe Courtney from and Mississippi State Party Chairman Wayne Dowdy.
