If you want to assign the choices will appear in the HTML form, assign to self.fields["selection"].choices in the __init__ method of the form. See [1] for a recent thread on that (scroll down to the end of the thread, because it starts at as a "how do I...?" question and the answer is only in one of the final posts). If you want to set up the initial selection values, pass in an "initial" parameter when you construct the form. See [2] (the Django docs for that) and [3] (another recent thread about setting initial values on multi-select stuff -- I don't know why it only shows my replies and not the original poster, but the info is there).
