I have found the Philadelphia county machine results by precinct.
There seem to be a general few votes for Johnson and Stein and
write-ins scattered around, even when Romney is zero.
There are over 1,000 precincts, so it is a case for one of your
spreadsheets, I think.
I stepped through the first 20 or so occurrences of OBAMA to check the
pattern of the numbers and they look realistic to me.
