She has been described as a member of the party's right wing, but describes herself as a "reform socialist", in the pragmatic center of the party. When leader of the Socialist People's Party Villy Søvndal announced that he would step down in September 2012, she announced her candidacy as new leader, and garnered supporting statements from most of the party top. Her opponent in the bid for party leadership was Annette Vilhelmsen, of the party's left wing, who won with 64% percent of the votes.
In January 2014 as the Socialist People's Party left the government coalition, Astrid Krag left the People's party to become a member of the ruling Social Democratic Party.
She lives on Amager, is married to musician Andreas Seebach with whom she has a daughter and a son.
