From Twitter (has no source link to back up the claim) :

Dems Voting Yes On Holder Contempt: Jim Matheson Utah / Collin Peterson Minn / John Barrow Ga / Nick Rahall W.V. / Mike McIntyre N.C.





From Washington Post:

At least four House Democrats plan to vote with Republicans to hold Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. in contempt of Congress and dozens more may join them, potentially undercutting the Obama administration’s argument that the vote is an election-year ploy by Republicans.

The four Democrats — John Barrow (Ga.), Nick Rahall (W. Va.), Collin Peterson (Minn.) and Jim Matheson (Utah) — maintain generally moderate voting records and face challenging reelection campaigns in moderate- or Republican-leaning districts.
