Figured it out; poll_id maps from polls_choices to the polls_polls primary key, so I tried using the Django primary-key shortcut (see below) and now it works. choices.get_values(fields=['poll', 'votes'], poll_id__exact=1) as suggested above, doesn't work: (TypeError: got unexpected keyword argument 'poll_id__exact'), but ... choices.get_values(fields=['poll', 'votes'], poll__pk=1) ... does! Not sure why though. Just as an "exercise left to the reader" sort of thing, I was trying to figure out how to make the lookup work without the pk shortcut, i.e.: choices.get_values(fields=['poll', 'votes'], poll__poll_id__exact=1) but it fails: TypeError: got unexpected keyword argument 'polls__poll_id__exact' I'm stumped!
