That is how databases do work. Default ordering is "no ordering". So you get results in no particular order. To have consistent fixed ordering you need to tell it somehow to database backend, in Django it's done by .order_by() [1] And then you have to select field you sort by. In case of tutorial there is not actually any good field to sort by in Choice-model.
