You don't need to write any more complicated views in order to access
an object's methods. Using generic views, you should be able to access
it as a member of the "object" variable on an object detail page. Try
something like this:
{% if object.was_published_today %}
Today's poll
{% else %}
Not today's poll
{% endif %}
On a list page, you are probably already iterating over the
"object_list" variable -- you should be able to access the
was_published_today method in a similar manner, for each element of
that set.
