To find the number of people above age 30 who are for the candidate, we need to look at the relevant rows in the table.

From the table:

  • For the age group 31–40, 30 people are for the candidate.
  • For the age group "Over 40," 25 people are for the candidate.

Now, let's add these numbers together:

  • 30 (for 31–40) + 25 (for Over 40) = 55.

Thus, the number of people above age 30 who are for the candidate is 55.

The correct response is: 55.
