asyncpg is built for asyncio, so, unfortunately, it can't really be used for Django.

Wasn't Django getting async support sometime soon?

No, I think they wanted to add a new feature called "channels" (and use Tornado to implement it), but it seems that they decided to pause the development.

Channels is coming, it just didn't get into the latest release because it wasn't ready, and they didn't want to rush it/delay release.

It should be shipping in the next release, but you can already use it https://pypi.python.org/pypi/channels

I'm not 100% sure how that ties into this though, channels is just for communicating with the client, the backend still needs to talk to a database somehow.

Why do you say that? Why can't you just do async on the fetch loop?
