To determine how many people above age 30 are for the candidate, we need to add up the number of supporters in the 31-40 age group, the 41-50 age group, and the 51-60 age group.

Number of supporters in the 31-40 age group: 25
Number of supporters in the 41-50 age group: 30
Number of supporters in the 51-60 age group: 20

Total number of people above age 30 who are for the candidate:
25 (31-40) + 30 (41-50) + 20 (51-60) = 75

Therefore, there are 75 people above age 30 who support the candidate.
