How do I get a web part to display items from a dropdownlist?

Question

I have a DropDownList that am filling with items from a list. The part of my code that am using to read the list and populating the drop down works just fine. I am now trying to figure out how to display the contents of the drop down on a web part. I know
it sounds like a straight forward and easy thing to figure out, but I have blanked out. Does anyone have a snippet I can take a look at? This is how I am currently reading from a list to create the drop down...
protected override void CreateChildControls()
string title = string.Empty;
EditorChoices = new DropDownList();
string siteUrl = "mySite";
using (SPSite site = new SPSite(siteUrl))
SPWeb web = site.RootWeb;
SPList list = web.Lists["testList"];
SPQuery testQuery = new SPQuery();
testQuery.Query = "<Query><Where><Geq><FieldRef Name='Title'/>" +
"<Value Type='Number'>10</Value></Geq></Where></Query>";
foreach (SPListItem item in list.GetItems(testQuery))
title = Convert.ToString(item["Title"]);
EditorChoices.Items.Add(title);
Controls.Add(EditorChoices);
base.CreateChildControls();
ChildControlsCreated = true;
I basically want to display the items returned from the query, which are now in the dropdownlist, to be displayed on my custom webpart. I really appreciate the help.
Thanks
UPDATE: My dropdownlist is a web part property. So when editing the web part, the drop down control appears in the web part property. Now that part is working just fine. The part am having an issue with is, the second part of my requirement is that I want
to display that same information within the drop down on the web part. Not as another drop down, but just to display them as a vertical text list on the web part.
