```auto
```
views.py
```from
from django.http import HttpResponse, HttpResponseRedirect
from django.urls import reverse
from django.db.models import F
from .models import Question, Choice
def index(request):
latest_question_list = Question.objects.order_by("-pub_date")[:5]
context = {"latest_question_list": latest_question_list}
return render(request, "index.html", context)
def detail(request, question_id):
question = get_object_or_404(Question, pk=question_id)
return render(request, "detail.html", {"question": question})
def results(request, question_id):
question = get_object_or_404(Question, pk=question_id)
return render(request, "results.html", {"question": question})
def vote(request, question_id):
question = get_object_or_404(Question, pk=question_id)
try:
selected_choice = question.choice_set.get(pk=request.POST["choice"])
except (KeyError, Choice.DoesNotExist):
return render(
request,
"detail.html",
{
"question": question,
"error_message": "You didnt select a choice",
},
)
else:
selected_choice.votes = F("votes") + 1
selected_choice.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("polls:results", args=(question_id,)))
```
models.py
```auto
from django.db import models
import datetime
from django.utils import timezone
class Question(models.Model):
question_text = models.CharField(max_length=200)
pub_date = models.DateTimeField("date published")
def __str__ (self):
return self.question_text
def was_published_recently(self):
return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1)
class Choice(models.Model):
question = models.ForeignKey(Question, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
choice_text = models.CharField(max_length=200)

def __str__ (self):
return self.choice_text

Welcome @Omar !
Have you verified that you do have choices for the question being rendered?
Does it work if you render the fields as shown in the tutorial?
What is the HTML that was produced by the template?
(I’m guessing you’re on part 3 of the tutorial?)

This output does not match the template you’re showing.
This leads me to believe that one (or more) of the following are true:
- You are not showing the complete template you are trying to render.
- You’re not rendering the template you think you’re rendering.
- You do not actually have any choices for question with ID = 1
