A difference in voltage between two points in a circuit is a difference in concentration of electrons at those two points, and since electrons have mass that's not quite zero, the location with the higher concentration of electrons will have very slightly higher mass density. But this is true for any electric potential (voltage) difference, whether or not there's any current flowing.
