It's not really a pressure, per se, but you're probably looking for voltage or electric potential difference (they're the same thing).
Its called voltage. It will make better sense if you realize that the underlying units of the volt is joules per coulomb, i.e. energy per charge.
Electro motive force (EMF) or voltage.

Voltage
Electricity, this may be electrons in a direct current. In an alternating current the electrons stay where they are and it is only the energy that moves between electrons.
The energy moves but the medium stays put. A cork will rest in one spot with the waves passing underneath it. In an electrical circuit the energy moves, but the electrons remain in place.
Wind is a cousin to the pressure. Pressure moves the wind.
Air moves from high pressure systems toward low pressure systems. This movement is the cause for the winds.
high pressure to low pressure
Voltage is the pressure that moves the electrons (current) through a circuit.
Electrons
Electrons in an active circuit either drift slowly, or just jiggle back and forth in one place.

The electrons don't actually move the electricity; the charge moves. The electrons slowly drift in the opposite direction from the charge.
In an open circuit, the circuit doesn't power the load because it isn't closed fully. A closed circuit closes properly and can power the load. If you didn't know, the load is the thing your trying to power.
the electrons
No, electrons from a battery don't reach the bulb before it lights. An electric current is not simply a flow of electrons. Rather, an electron in a circuit will move only a short distance and then nudge another electron into motion, which will do the same thing with yet another electron. So while the current moves through the entire circuit, individual electrons do not unless it is left on for a very long time.

"electrons"
Electricity can flow in an electric circuit by a battery. The battery creates electrons, which flow through the wire, and then go into a light bulb. (That is how a light bulb in a circuit lights up.) A series circuit is a circuit with one wire that electrons can flow through. Also, there can be more than one light bulb connecting to the same wire. A parallel circuit is a circuit with light bulbs that have their own wire.ClarificationThe above answer, unfortunately, perpetuates the myth that current leaves a battery, and finds its way around a circuit. This is not the case at all. It is the load that 'draws' the current from the battery and it is the load that determines the size of that current.
