The number of people above age 30 who are for the candidate can be found by adding the number of people in the "For" column for the age groups 31-40 and over 40.
For the age group 31-40, 30 people are for the candidate.
For the age group over 40, 25 people are for the candidate.
Adding these two numbers together:
30 + 25 = 55
Therefore, the number of people above age 30 who are for the candidate is 55.
