Answer:

Jimmy Carter's Popularity dipped to a new low after the failed rescue mission to release the hostages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jimmy Carter was already struggling with inflation and a poor economy in the country. When the hostage crisis took place, Jimmy Carter resorted to diplomatic efforts rather than any military action.

As the hostage crisis grew longer, his approach was seen as weak and not effective. Even until the end of his Presidency, the matter was not resolved and was one of the many reasons why people did not vote for him.
