I was able to resolve it with this:
class TransactionUpdateForm(forms.ModelForm):
branch_name = ChoiceField(required=True)
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(TransactionUpdateForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
br = [obj.name_branch for obj in Branch.objects.all()]
pos = [b for b in range(len(br))]
self.fields['branch_name'].choices = zip(pos, br)
Thanks Tom
