Nearly 100 volunteers, rescue personnel join desperate search for missing NY Democrat

Nearly 100 volunteers and rescue personnel showed up on Long Island Saturday to continue the frantic search for a missing political candidate who inexplicably vanished last month.

Splitting off into pairs, the volunteers set out at 7 a.m. to canvas and comb through Long Beach, where Petros Krommidas, 29, was last seen on April 23 when he went for a training swim, cops and family said.

Soon after he went missing, police found the Krommidas’ locked car by the Allegria Hotel, just near the beach he had regularly visited to train for a triathlon, his family added.

Krommidas – a Democrat who is running for a seat on the Nassau County Board of Legislators – reportedly appeared to have taken a towel with him on the day he disappeared.

“We’re sending people out with flyers, we’re going to go and canvas the area between Atlantic Beach and Lido Beach and Point Lookout,” Republican County Executive Bruce Blakeman told reporters from the beach’s parking lot Saturday afternoon.

The efforts included ATVs, drones and helicopters, and members of the Marine Bureau in boats, according to Blakeman, who ordered the mobilization of Nassau’s Community Emergency Response Team Thursday.

Maybe Tom Homan should put out the word that the 300,000 missing children all are Democrats and could be voting in five years. That might motivate 100 people to go out looking for THEM.

He’s wrapped himself in the Epstein client list so he can be invisible to the government.

IIRC, Long Beach, Long Island, is about as crowded as Coney Island. There is little to no chance that he was not almost immediately found if he washed ashore anywhere near Long Beach.

Yep - they had some “milder” riptides along the beaches at Myrtle beach and we would sometimes get caught in them while body surfing when there was enough wave action to support it.
Sometimes you could catch a wave and ride through the riptide, but we averaged about three “rides” before moving a half mile or so away from where we started even if we didn’t get caught in one of the stronger streams.

What is a training swim, you either swim or you don’t.
